Mar 12th, 2021 - Cardioaortic embolism to the brain accounts for approximately 15-30% of ischaemic strokes and is often referred to as 'cardioembolic stroke'. One-quarter of patients have more than one cardiac source of embolism and 15% have significant cerebrovas...

Mar 11th, 2021 - P-wave indices have been not fully studied in subtypes of ischemic stroke. We compared P-wave indices among embolic stroke, lacunar stroke and the control. P-wave duration, advanced interatrial block (aIAB) defined as P-wave duration ≥120 ms and b...

Mar 8th, 2021 - Embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) account for up to 25% of ischemic strokes. Identification of biomarkers that could improve the prediction of stroke subtype and subsequently of stroke prevention still remains a major issue. HIBISCUS-ST...

Feb 22nd, 2021 - High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) as a prognostic factor of stroke has been proposed and studied. However, the relationship between hs-CRP levels and outcomes among patients with cardioembolic stroke (CES) remains unclear. This study ai...

May 10th, 2020 - What if atrial fibrillation (AF) turned out to be a marker of risk for cardioembolic stroke but not necessarily the direct cause of culprit thrombi? Patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) showed about as much atrial fibrosis on...

Mar 4th, 2020 - LOS ANGELES – When a patient with atrial fibrillation (AFib) has a cardioembolic stroke, the best blood thinner to start may be a direct-acting oral anticoagulant (DOAC), possibly beginning 7-10 days after the index stroke, according to an analysi.

Oct 17th, 2018 - It is clear that high levels of total homocysteine (tHcy) are a strong, graded risk factor for vascular disease. This is particularly true for cardioembolic stroke; high levels of tHcy quadruple the risk of stroke in atrial fibrillation. Vitamin t...

Sep 27th, 2018 - A Single-Center Study Researchers at Mayo Clinic compared strokes in patients with and without OSA. They examined data from patients who had their first ischemic stroke within one year after undergoing polysomnography.
